Isel now selects masked move instructions for vselect instead of blendm. But sometimes it beneficial to register allocation to remove the tied register constraint by using blendm instructions.
This also picks up cases where the masked move was created due to a masked load intrinsic.

We should probably teach the two address instruction pass to turn masked moves into BLENDM when its beneficial to the register allocator.

The change is part of RegCall calling convention support for LLVM.
Long double (f80) requires special treatment as the first f80 parameter is saved in FP0 (floating point stack).
This review present the change and the corresponding tests.

The Register Calling Convention (RegCall) was introduced by Intel to optimize parameter transfer on function call.
This calling convention ensures that as many values as possible are passed or returned in registers.
This commit presents the basic additions to LLVM CodeGen in order to support RegCall in X86.
